Automotive Elastomer Market Forecast To Reach $58.8 Billion By 2022
12/6/2017 -
Pune, India - The report, "Automotive Elastomers Market by Type (Natural Rubber, SBR, Nitrile Elastomer, EPDM, Silicone Rubber, Fluoroelastomer, Styrene Block Copolymers, TPU, TPO, TPV, TPC), Application (Tire and Non-Tire), and Region - Global Forecast to 2022," published by MarketsandMarkets, the market is projected to grow from an estimated $46.13 billion in 2017 to $58.82 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 5.0 percent from 2017 to 2022. Globally, people are opting for products that deliver superior automotive performance and have a long life cycle. Automotive elastomers are used as replacement for traditional rubber due to their unique set of properties such as heat resistance, weathering and ozone resistance, flexibility, durability, aging resistance, variety, chemical resistance, and oil and gas resistance. These factors are leading to an increase in the demand for automotive elastomers globally. Automotive elastomers are used in tire and non-tire applications. Among these two, the tire application is expected to lead the automotive elastomers market between 2017 and 2022, followed by the non-tire application. Because of the implementation of stringent environmental regulations regarding emission levels, the design of vehicles has changed drastically over the past few decades. Manufacturers are designing compact, lightweight, and more efficient vehicles. This requires that various under-the-hood components should be in close proximity to each other, resulting in increased heat levels. Vehicle manufacturers require an automotive elastomer that can operate under such tough conditions. Among various types, the natural rubber segment is expected to lead the automotive elastomers market during the forecast period. Natural rubber is known for its excellent properties, such as outstanding resistance to weathering and ozone, good compression set, high physiological inertness, resistance to bacteria and fungi, and high temperature stability. Owing to these properties and ease of handling, natural rubber is used in a wide variety of applications such as tires, air filters, fan couplings and radiator hoses. Asia Pacific is projected to be the largest market for automotive elastomers, to reach $29.87 billion by 2022. China is projected to be the largest market for automotive elastomers, whereas, India is estimated to be the fastest-growing market for automotive elastomers in the Asia Pacific region, between 2017 and 2022. Low manufacturing costs, high economic growth rate, and large population with enhanced middle class lifestyles are the major factors that have led to the growth of the automotive elastomers market in this region. The demand for automotive elastomers from the automotive and transportation industry is expected to grow in the Asia Pacific due to rapid industrialization and the increasing number of application industries in the region. Major players in the global Automotive Elastomers Market are Arlanxeo (Netherlands), Dow (U.S.), ExxonMobil (U.S.), JSR Corporation (Japan), DuPont (U.S.), BASF (Germany), LG Chem (South Korea), SABIC (Saudi Arabia), Teknor Apex (U.S.) and Zeon Corporation (Japan).

GOS believes strongly in developing the potential of the whole child. To that end the ARTS play an important role here at the School. Music, Dance, Art and Design as well as Drama help students develop their creativity and to learn discipline, new techniques and open a world of possibilities for them.
One such project was the Year 8 Art and Design Jungle Mural. If you take a walk down the corridor on the ground floor you will see a mural created by the students and teachers based around work completed in class. The project objectives were for the Year 8's to:
- use their creative skills to try to create a 'jungle world' for their three animals.
- Construct a landscape carefully to provide a suitable environment.
- The composition needed to be well balanced and to consider depth and proportion.
Marks were awarded for how well the three pictures merge together and how well students have been able to replicate colour and tone.
Below is some of the great work completed by students.
The results have been fantastic with Mr. Eades weaving the work into one giant mural. Congratulations to everyone for this great piece of art work. We hope to see more great artistic creations in the future.

Most of us…once in a life face the situation…that how can they save their relationship with their loved one..!!??? Aren't we…???
In every relationship…two major aspects play major role. One is Want (expectation) and another one is curiosity (looking for surprises). When you look for beyond need, is called want. When you just want to try something for the sake of having an experience is called curiosity.
Want and curiosity don't have any end. So the question is do we need to draw the line somewhere??
An incident that I heard, makes me very confused about need of any line in a relationship. Before this incident I always believe that there should be a line that we don't have to cross for the sake of our relationship. But know after hearing one of my friend…my mind is surrounded by lots of questions….and I am finding a solution for it in the trap of relationship theory.
One of my friend is happily married (I have thought of) and it has been nine lovely years.
One day I came to know that she is having an extramarital affair..!!!! And I was shocked..!!! Because I know her since my childhood….my mind is never ready to accept this kind of incident from my close friend.
I met her and asked her why you are doing so??? You both are the inspiration for other couples. If there is a problem….there would be solution….and I asked her that things can be worked out….please draw a line.
She told me that, "I have always wondered, why to draw a line?? Why can't I look forward to fulfilling all my needs, all my wants and all my curiosities? What is the harm in doing so? After all, I have got only one life. Why not live it to the fullest?"
I directly asked her that, "do you have some morals or ethics in your life…?"
She said yes, but they are subjective in nature. One person's right can be another person's wrong. It depends how you interpret it. She said the problem is our perception of constraints in a marriage. It is very nature of the forbidden to appear sweet. It pains me to confine in a boundary. Why does a relationship tie a couple down and not set them free?? Why within a marriage do you have to compromise with your freedom that you used to cherish before getting married? Isn't it suffocating that you could do so much before marriage, but not after getting married???
I asked her that if you loved your freedom so much than why got married??
She replied, I want marriage as well. I denounce the restrictive aspect of it and embrace the joy it brings. I want to enjoy the essence of a married life as much as I want to retain my freedom. I want to live my life with someone, grow old, with that someone…and have my kids with that someone. After a day's work I want to come back home to someone and share my every day with him. I want all of that.
I must admit she is very honest and somehow she puts me in a situation where I would like to think by being her side.
But still…again I return back to my old theories and request her that if there is a problem, it can be worked out.
She calmly replied, "what if it can't be worked out? What if it is not humanly possible to do so??
She continued our conversation by adding that, "I want him to take care of me like my mom used to do, at times financially supports me as my father used to do, have fun with me like my sibling used to have, become my best friend so that I can share my secrets with him. I want him to give me all that my entire surrounding used to give me. Besides, I also want him to be my lover as well. I want him to become a part of my identity, complete my social status, comfort me, become my emotional support, understand me, love me, drive me wild in bed…..what is he……A Superman??? Even a superman as a partner would not fulfill my contradictory expectations. When I want him to be familiar and yes mysterious. How is possible that my life is for one person only?? Where do we fit ex-boyfriends and ex-husbands in case of break ups and divorces?? What do we do with that space? Leave it empty, after they leave? Why do you think that being with someone outside marriage while being married is a crime?? Am I criminal to you??
And I have no answers to her questions….I met her with so many doubts within me….and I want to justification of those doubts….but in return…her theory of relationship makes me helpless with so many doubts….I am talking to my inner self and looking for the justification of those doubts…. May be on some big day I could have answers to all her questions and I could be able to prove her that my theory of relationship has more justifying values than her…!!!

What a wonderful tribute to make that stained glass window. It is made so nice with so much lovely details about his belief.ReplyDelete
The fact that the Rev.Awdry had a significant input on the themes in the windows makes it much more personal.Delete
Hello Rosemary, What beautiful work was done in this window, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern images. I appreciate the photo of the entire window, which ties together the different elements, and gives us an idea of the overall effect. I am sure that admirers of Awdry will find special meaning and comfort here.
As regards friendly, cute, anthropomorphized trains, in Asia, Thomas has considerable competition from the Japanese Shinkansen high-speed trains, whose image has spawned unbelievable abouts of toys and other merchandise, almost rivaling Hello Kitty in its ubiquity.
Hello Jim - I did not realise that the Japanese Shinkansen high-speed trains had spawned lots of toys in Asia, but I can well imagine how they would. I looked it up on Google and was surprised to learn that the first train is now 50 years old, and even today, it still looks very futuristic.Delete
Rosemary, What a lovely story and windows.ReplyDelete
Thanks Margaret - glad that you enjoyed the story about the Rev. Awdry and the stained glass window dedicated to him.Delete
Dear Rosemary,
This is a most lovely story of how Thomas the tank engine began.
I didnt read them as a child.. well cant remember.
but My grandson Thomas , thought the engine was built for him when reading the stories to him.
The stained glass windows are stunning.
What a kind man the rev Awdry seemed to be
I enjoyed this post.
happy Sunday
val x
Dear Val - This lovely window had completely slipped my mind until Mike mentioned the Rev. Awdry in his post. I should have done this post a long time ago as it is very near to me. The Rev. Awdry died shortly after we moved here, and that is how I learnt about it.Delete
Hello Rosemary,
We never realised that Awdry was born in Romsey....the birthplace of one of us!
The stained glass window is such a lovely and personal memorial. So many interesting details commemorating a writer whose work must surely be known across several continents. And, what a perfect sentiment .....to see God in the ordinary.....
The Rev. Awdry was surprised at the way his train books became so popular along with the various spin offs from films and TV etc. He himself lived a very modest life, and received relatively small royalties. He was a man of simple tastes who was unconcerned by the ways in which the world rates success.Delete
What a wonderful window, and how he wanted to be remembered was great, particularly that he made children laugh.ReplyDelete
The window is a fine work of modern stained glass craftsmanship and I do like the way the themes are linked by the four elements.Delete
I have to admit, I cried reading this. It is a lovely story about a wonderful man . Thank you.ReplyDelete
I think that is a natural emotional response. I am pleased that you enjoyed reading his story. Thank you for your kind comment.Delete
I love stained glass with modern themes. I wish there were more of it.ReplyDelete
When you are up close to this window it has quite a lot of 3D work on it which helps to give it depth. Stained glass is an art which seems to be on the increase here. May be because many of our great Cathedral windows are requiring restoration.Delete
Dear Rosemary,
"Thomas the Tank Engine" was one of those books I had to read to our son again and again (and when we took a walk, we both made up new stories). So thank you so very much for enlighten me about the author - I never looked up who he was. And to be able to find Tom in a church window - what a surprise! (Will take a note in my little pink book: Sights to see). I read somewhere that they wanted to force the publishers to put a female tank engine inside the stories - I hope that the idea has flopped - they might write another book with a female hero-machine - but not change the creation of an author (they wouldn't dream to change something gender-cultural in Goethe or Shakespeare).
Dear Britta - I just cannot imagine an Engine being female, can you? Trains are such boys toys. As the Rev. Awdry has been dead for 18 years I do not know what the situation is regarding whether there are any new books or not. Either way they would not be his!!!Delete
What a lovely post about Thomas's creator. The window is a wonderful tribute to a great man and his work over the years that has bought so much joy to children and adults! xxReplyDelete
Rev. Awdry died a year after we moved to the Cotswolds, so it was then that I learnt about this window. I had intended to do a post on it, but typically it slipped my mind. Glad that you enjoyed it.Delete
So very very interesting. I would love to see that window...especially the darling little (sad) Thomas.ReplyDelete
It is that little corner of the window that people always gravitate to first, but many people do not notice the small image of Rev. Awdry shutting the door.Delete
Dear Rosemary,
I enjoyed reading the story behind Thomas the Tank engine. Thomas was always one of my daughters favourits :-)
Have a good week!
madelief x
Dear Madelief,
The train stories do have a strong appeal to young children, and of course hidden within the stores, the Rev. Awdry often includes a moral element too.
We also like stained glass. We have seen a similar cemetery in Prague.
I have the impression that modern day stained glass has improved significantly over the last 20-30 years.Delete
I love the stained glass windows, and I have to admit that wowed me with its originality. Regards.ReplyDelete
I am pleased that you enjoyed seeing this stained glass window, and you are right its originality is totally unique.Delete
I had never noticed that the Thomas books were written by a Reverend (Awdry), Rosemary. Thank you for a lovely post, full of information and the stained glass windows are quite wonderful. My three grandsons have all been great fans of Thomas, the youngest now is into it in a big way. I have enjoyed purchasing a number of the little wooden trains for them, and will send a link to my daughter so she can enjoy your post too.ReplyDelete
Thank you Patricia - I love the fact that you will be sending a link to your daughter in Canada so that she and your grandsons can know a little more about the books and how they came to be written.
It is now 17 years since the Rev. Awdry died and it is lovely to know that the current generations are still growing up knowing his books.
Lovely windows, and the whole place looks so beautiful. And the little train is so cute.
Have a happy monday.
Thank you Orvokki - I wonder if you have the Thomas Train books in Finland for young children?Delete
very interesting Rosemary ! thanks for sharing.. the area where you leave is just beautiful !ReplyDelete
Last week the countryside was looking lovely as the skies were bright blue and the sun was shinning - everything looks so much better in the bright light - roll on the summer.Delete
Rosemary - that was wonderful! I have a feeling that you partly did it for me, and I also appreciate the mention. It is a lovely post. I didn't realise the window would be like that, so beautiful and piognant. It strikes me that he must have been a rather special man.ReplyDelete
Mike - It is true that having mentioned the Rev. Awdry I thought that you might enjoy seeing this window. I intended to show it many moons ago but it completely slipped my memory until you mentioned him. Thanks for the reminder and glad that you enjoyed seeing the post. We spent a happy hour wandering around the church and the grounds on a beautiful afternoon last week.Delete
How nice. I had no idea. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete
I am pleased that you enjoyed seeing the post.Delete
Dear Rosemary,
The design of this memorial window is charming, and I am very taken by the use of its particular rich pastel palette. I like the idea of the contemporary being included in stained glass; after all, with time such windows will reveal our own period as bygone. Should you ever visit the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., you'll see a number of contemporary figures in the gargoyles.
Dear Mark - I too like this window because it is good contemporary craftsmanship and also personal. Church windows usually tell a biblical story but this one conveys the spirit and moral values of the Rev. Awdry. The window is extremely popular with young children too, they all want to find Thomas.Delete
Interesting post Rosemary and I just love the last picture...
Have a beautiful week and take care!
Thank you Titti - glad that you enjoyed it - you take care too♡Delete
Amazing stained glass!!!
xoxo, Juliana | PJ' Happies :)
It is a lovely window.Delete
I love Rev. Awdry's stories, but my favourite train story was The Little Engine That Could which encouraged optimism and hard work. I've never forgotten its message - I think I can, I think I can, I think I can etc.ReplyDelete
All of his stories had a moral element to them, as the one you picked points out.Delete
The stained glass telling the stories re amazing !ReplyDelete
I particularly like the bit showing the two trains and Rev. Awdry shutting the doors.Delete
This is so interesting. I didn't know anything about Rev. Awdry at all before your post. My children, especially my son, have loved the Thomas books and shows. I will show my son this post tomorrow, he would enjoy it.ReplyDelete
I am pleased that you enjoyed learning about Rev. Awdry, and hope that your son enjoys seeing the window showing Thomas - thank you for your visit Jennifer.Delete
Thank you, Rosemary, for this interesting post. It is really a shame that Rev. Awdry couldn't see such fascinating stained glass. I love it for its lovely design and colors with its own story connected by the great themes centered around Wilbert. Helping people to see God in ordinary things and then making children laugh, happy, and feel excited…what a fulfilling life he had! My granddaughter F (4-year) love Thomas the Tank Engine very very much. When she stayed with us at age of 2 during her mother's hospitalization, I don't remember how many times we repeated the Thomas DVDs. Now she is 4-year-old and is pleased Hiro from Japan is in the story. We have both Thomas the Tank Engine and Japan's Bullet Train for "Plarail".
Dear Yoko - it is lovely to think that your little granddaughter F has enjoyed Thomas the Tank Engine books and DVDs. Someone else also mentioned about the Japanese Bullet Train too.
I moved away from Stroud in 1979, and never saw this window.... how my children would have loved this.ReplyDelete
He certainly lived in Rodborough at the time you were in the area.Delete
Hello , You have shared a beautiful post about Rev.Wilbert, I liked all the pictures of window :)ReplyDelete
Thank you Aunt Mary for your visit, and I am pleased that you enjoyed the post.Delete
What a stunning stained glass window and a lasting tribute to Rev.Awdry. Thanks for such an interesting post. P xReplyDelete
I had forgotten what a lovely window it is, so I was pleased to see it again.Delete
I really love modern stained glass windows with themes that relate to today. I am just writing a little piece for the church magazine of St Edmund's Chingford about their Storytellers window, featuring Lewis Carroll, C S Lewis and Jonathan SwiftReplyDelete
That sounds as if it would be an interesting post too.Delete
The window has been creatively designed. There are beautiful memorial windows that feature children, but they make me feel sad because they're in memory of someone who has died young. Even though Rev. Awdry didn't live to see the window installed and there's that panel with the wistful look on Thomas's face it's uplifting and a fitting tribute. I like the other panel depicting Wilbert with Margaret reading to Christopher since the window is also in memory of Rev. Awdry's wife.
I have featured, you may remember, the window in Ashbourne church showing the Turnbull sisters, Monica and Dorothea, who both sadly died in a fire. Although the window is an exquisite window designed by the eminent Christopher Whall, it is a window full of tragedy.
Rev. Awdry lived a long and happy life and as you say the window is a fitting tribute to both him and his wife.
What a lovely window - a very fitting memorial to a man who lived out his faith in everyday life and gave such huge pleasure to generations of children. I have many happy memories of reading his stories to our children and grandchildren. I love his preferred epitaph, which sums him up perfectly.ReplyDelete
The church is on my doorstep Perpetua and I had intended to do a post on the window for a long time, but it slipped my memory until I read about the Rev Awdry on another blog.Delete

Has anyone experience vein irratation on B & R and what were your symptoms? What did they do to avoid/ease it?
I have experience some pain up my arm since my last cycle.
I have consulted the haematology doctors but am getting, maybe nerve irritation or vein irritation.
I am due my next cycle next week and am a bit worried it is going to get worse.
I have to use heat pads while the B is going in as I have cold agglutinin disease and the coldness of the infusion was making it painful.
Hi never had B I had rchop, but two thoughts could they give it slower even if its pushed by the nurse or could they give any fluids at the same time to try to reduce the impact it may have. or both.
Patients who have HL have abvd and one of their drugs can cause vein pain and its what they do to try to reduce the effect, sure your nurse or consultant will know this if you mention it and ask is it possible.
we all know this is a roller coaster ride, where we ride blind, never knowing where the highs and lows are
Hi John
I saw my consultant on Tuesday and she was the one who suggested it could be vein irritation. I also said I was concerned that my next treatment would make it worst.
I'm going to get in touch with the CNS nurses tomorrow, unfortunately mine is on leave this week, to see if anything can be done.
If I don't get any joy there I'll get in touch with the chemo unit.
I did wonder last time if they had flushed the vein properly as it seemed so quick. I did ask them but they seemed to be a bit affronted that I had asked!
Ann sometimes you have do whats right for you even if it means offending the chemo nurses, I had to do it several times and I know from my own treatment they can give the drugs much slower, I know that puts them under pressure, but they have a duty of care to the patient and if slow administration is the only way then thats how it should be. A good nurse will understand. I had to have riituximab slowly as I reacted to it and a couple of the chop drugs had to be pushed slower than normal as they used to hit me hard, I ended up having all bar one treatment on a bed rather than in a chair. The was one nurse who would always be a challenge but I stood my ground and told them this is what has been agreed with the consultant.
hope you get sorted
Hi Ann
I find that when the bendamutin goes in it has normally been refrigerated and if it is cold then it causes pain in the vein like having cold ice left against your skin for a long time I find it better when the bendamustin has been left a little bit to get to room temperature so you could ask them to remove it for a while before your treatment starts also I find that about 4 days after treatment the wrist/arm area that it went in becomes painful with neuralgia for about a week then it's ok
hope this helps
Oh yes Simon, I know that feeling well.
I have cold agglutinin disease and was in pain during the infusion so my consultant asked them to take it out the fridge beforehand and have heat pads available. It did help last time only to get this pain shooting up my arm about 1 1/2 hours after.
Felt like I had hit my arm and was bruised, other parts of my arm sensitive.
Have now found one of my veins feels as if it has a hard lump in it, so am thinking it's probably had it!
Why dudn't I find it when I saw my consultant on a Tuesday!
Left a message with the nurses about diluting B further, hopefully they will get back.
Unfortunately mine is away this week!
Thanks Simon, how's the skin?
Thanks John
Don't know why I find it so hard to speak out for myself.
I volunteer at the same hospital and am speaking up for other patients all the time!
I am still trying to get my head round all the issues folks face during treatments :(
I had a PICC in for all my R-EPOCH infusions as each cycle was 120hrs at a time over 6 cycles and they said it had to go in sloooow.
I have had more issues since then during my many hospital stays with infections and the Cannula sites do react and I get very sore arms. I have had a couple of times when the Cannula has burst through the vain in my arm pumping antibiotics into the tissue surrounding the site and boy it was painful. Its called Extravasation and yes I had to look it up :)
My team tell me that my veins have taken a beating over the years and are taking a long time to recover if ever.

Yes I had looked that one up as well.
Had a return phone call from the nurse and it seems they are still sticking with, it's the cold agglutinin.
They told the nurse they hadn't got the Bendamustine out of the fridge beforehand last time.
Which I find a bit funny as the first thing I asked when I went in was had they done it and they said yes!
I also told the nurse that if it was the cold agglutinin why was I then still having pain in my arm 4 weeks later!
I feel I'm bashing my head against a wall, even with vein irritation I would have thought it would have resolved by now but don't know.
Going to see if I can talk to the chemo unit and get something resolved.
Worse thing is I felt fine before they started the treatment!
Keep on keeping on Namod.
At times it does feel like you are walking in a bad hail storm and you just can get your head up.
Oh my goodness, yes! I hear you!
I had such sore veins in my arms with the Bendamustine! That was the worst side effect I had with the whole treatment (thankfully).
Like you, my team spoke about it being the coldness going into the veins.
But eventually I got them to understand that the pain came a few days AFTER the infusion. The Bendamustine was burning and hardening my veins.
I found heated wheat packs (microwaveable teddy bears) on both arms helped enormously with the pain.
However, the absolute game changer was having a chest port fitted.
I was very anxious about it, as I was afraid that the Bendamustine would simply then make my heart vein that sore, and I certainly didn't want that!!
But it absolutely transformed my whole experience of the remaining chemo, and now maintenance.
It is SO much more comfortable and convenient.
I don't know how many rounds you have remaining, or if you will be doing maintenance.
But if you can possibly have a chest port fitted (port-a-cath), it will be transformative for you, in my experience.
Good luck with the rest of your treatment.
Hi Fruitful
Thank you so much for your reply makes me feel I'm not going mad.
Things have moved on a bit since my last post.
Got in touch with the chemo unit and discussed my concerns, they were very good, said they would get in touch with my consultant.
I had asked if it the B could be diluted further to reduce the risk.
The result was an impromptu meeting with my consultant, myself and the chemo nurse.
We discussed various possibilities of delivery, I have small wonky veins, but as I only have 1 B to & 4 R to go, no maintenance, after taking advice are sticking to cannula. The R shouldn't cause the same problems.
They are also taking advice from the pharmacist who is looking into diluting B further, without degrading it.
They are going to use my other arm on both days instead of alternating.
I do have cold agglutinin which isn't making things any easier. They are taking B out of the fridge and using heat pads.
I have been putting a heat pad on my arm which does ease the pain for a while.
Finding the whole thing stressful and getting more anxious as the days get closer to treatment day tomorrow.
Don't know if the tingling in my arm and hand is to do with the veins or anxiety!
As I have Waldenstrom's I will have to go through this again at some time so will definitely push for the port.
You have allayed my fears regarding it going into the vein near your heart.
Glad things worked out for you, hope your maintenance is going well.
Thanks again
Hi Ann
That's great news that you only have one more round to do! Congratulations.
I'm so glad that you found my comments helpful, and absolutely, if you are going to have to do this again at some point (like many of us), definitely go for the port next time. :-) :-)
May you have a lovely long period of remission before that may happen though.
Big virtual hugs,
Thanks For the hugs Sue.

Social Development Team
The manager, Priscilla Naziel, considers Donna Evans, Taylor Naziel and DeWayne Robinson important members who contribute to the success of this great team.
"Donna and I fund the Elders Lunches on Wednesdays, the Community Lunches on Fridays and the Community Breakfasts on Saturdays. We fund the Food Bank, the Family Support programme. And, we look after the Elders Programme, of about seventy elders."
The Elders Programme is mostly advocacy—helping them fill out forms for maximum benefits, funding the Homemakers, who schedule visits and trips. There was a recent Home Fire Inspection Programme to ensure everyone is following protocol—keeping their smoke alarms up-to-date, clear access through the house, that sort of thing. The programme also covers extra shipments of wood to those whose winter supply isn't sufficient. There's also the annual Christmas food baskets and the Christmas Dinner, as well as January gift cards.
Taylor Naziel's contribution is to coordinate the Food Bank, and cook the Friday lunch and Saturday breakfasts.
As if that's not enough, this team issues the monthly AANDC client cheques, through Donna Evans, the Intake Clerk.
Donna does all the filing and ensures that if AANDC arrives for an audit, we're ready.
"Before I got here, I think we got a 69%," Priscilla tells me. "The last time they showed up, they gave us two weeks' notice. We kicked butt on that one. Our statistic went up to 99.9%. Yes! They actually wanted to use us as a role model for other Bands."
The team supports a variety of needs: People with Disabilities (PWDs), single moms, single dads—there are a lot of reason to be on assistance. Interestingly, Priscilla has seen surprising changes.
"Compared to when I first got here," she relates, "we have half the numbers."
DeWayne Robinson is the Witset representative for families that are working through Children's Services.
"I support these families and facilitate any events that can help bring families closer together."
"For instance, at our Strengthening Families Workshop, which runs at least once every year, we help with parenting skills, give the children a voice and ideas for using that voice properly in the household and in the community, and we teach everyone to take care of themselves."
"We also have some pretty good facilitators in Jason James and Bertha Pierre."
"The rest of my job deals with children who've been apprehended for a number of reasons and are working with the Ministry of Children and Family Development. I assist so the children stay within their family, or at least within their community. I assist with the cultural and background and traditions with the Witsuwit'en. My territory ranges from Vancouver to the Northwest Coast, and as far as Ontario. We have Witsuwit'en living at some distances!"
"I love the opportunity to be able to advocate on their behalf. I have seven sisters and five brothers, and we were raised right. I want to ensure that the children I work with have better opportunities than I had when growing up."
"I'm in the Band office Monday - Friday, 8:30 - 4:30, but always available for community events, too."
Employment Assistance Services
Our Employment Assistance Services Coordinator is Karen Plasway, of Gitxsan-Witsuwit'en Wilp Spookwx Lax Gibuu/Gitdumden heritage.
"My knowledge was gained from life experience in the tourism, forest and fishing industries throughout my career as a general labourer. Upon successful completion of the Office Assistant Program, I worked at the Ministry of Social Development, providing income and disability assistance. I learned inter-government negotiations as the seven Provincial Parks were being established in Witsuwit'en Territory. I then worked with Service Canada, processing training applications with Employment Insurance Benefits."
"In my current role, I provide resume writing services, funding application assistance and assisted job searches. I research labour market trends and current demands; the conceptualized Nedihlk'iyh Projects are funded on detailed planned Skills Training proposals approved by Tribal Resource Investment Corporation (TRICORP) an Aboriginal Skills Employment Training initiative through the Government of Canada."
"Like my clients, I continue to learn: I has taken the Essential Skills Practitioner course and am currently studying for her Provincial Instructors Diploma, which will allow me to empower my fellow First Nations."

Chicken with Goat Cheese Sauce
To create the smoothest sauce, use soft goat cheese and serve immediately. Pluck the tiny leaves of a thyme sprig to get one teaspoon of leaves for the sauce.
How to Make It
Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Sprinkle chicken evenly with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook 6 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan; keep warm.
Add wine to pan; bring to a boil, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Cook until mixture is reduced to 1 tablespoon (about 1 minute). Add broth and thyme sprigs; cook until mixture is reduced to 1/2 cup (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat; discard thyme sprigs.
Add cheese to pan; stir with a whisk until smooth. Serve sauce over chicken; sprinkle with thyme leaves.
Wine note: While a wine lover might ask which wine goes best with chicken, in this dish, it's the goat cheese sauce, more than the chicken breasts, that deserves most of your pairing attention. Goat cheese is an ideal partner for sauvignon blanc. Both goat cheese and the sauvignon blanc have clean, fresh, tangy, earthy flavors, so the food and wine mirror each other. A sauvignon blanc I love for the flavor: Tin Roof Sauvignon Blanc from the North Coast of California--about $ -Karen MacNeil

The second part of an interview with Georgia Tech defensive tackle Adam Gotsis, conducted in the final week of spring practice. In this segment, Gotsis gave an update on linemate Jabari Hunt-Days, anticipated locker-room renovations and his graduation plans. The first half can be read here.
Q: Does it feel like your last year?
A: It doesn't in a way, just because I didn't come in with the class I'm going to leave with, but it does in a way being that I'm kind of the leader in the D-line room along with Jabari (Hunt-Days) and Pat (Gamble) and those guys, but I'm kind of the oldest guy now in the D-line room now. So in a way, it does feel like it's my last time, but then in a way it doesn't.
Talking with Coach (Joe) Hamilton and stuff like that, they just say, before you know it, the first game's going to be here, before you know it, it's going to be week six, before you know it, you're playing Georgia. It's kind of, you're just taking every day for what it is. You've got to make the most of every day.
Q: What have you seen out of Jabari?
A: Just definitely comes to work every day. He's one of those guys that's hardworking. He wants to be out there with us. I think last year really got his mind back where it needs to be. I think that's the biggest thing. He's had a good spring, as well. He's definitely shown glimpses of what he can do and it's going to be a big summer for him. Hopefully me and him can get a lot of work done together and keep him on track.
It's a big year for him, too. It's his senior year, as well. I'm sure he's going to come into the summer ready to work and it's going to be a thing where we've got to push each other to be the best that we can.
Q: Is he really 290?
A: He's 300.
Q: Really?
A: Nah. He's heavy. He needs to lose a little bit of weight. He's still moving like an animal. He's fast.
Q: What do you know about the locker-room renovation?
A: I think they're going to do it in the spring (of 2016). They're going to change a whole bunch of stuff in there and re-do it. That's going to be good for those guys coming in the next few years. I was hoping it was going to be this season, but, I mean, it's a foundation. Even just having a say in what's going to go in there and things like that, that's pretty cool, so you can come back and you can see it. I'm just looking forward to that. I know the guys that are coming up will enjoy it. Hopefully I'm back here training in it one day and I can come in and use it. That would be pretty cool.
Q: What did you say you wanted?
A: Definitely some hot/cold tubs in the football locker room so we're not using the ones in the training room. Just convenience. A couple TV's in there. Just improving the lockers themselves, like getting a better lockbox and getting some charging outlets in the lockbox and stuff like that. Just little things and I think they're going to redo out here (in the lobby) as well. That'll be pretty cool.
Q: What are your plans for the summer?
A: Just work out, work hard. I've got to get my body in shape and get myself mentally ready for the season and going to be watching a lot of film and hopefully I can get some guys together like Pat and Rod (Rook-Chungong) and those older guys, and a few of the young guys, as well, just get that extra work in. That's what it's going to take to be better than what we were last year. That's what you're trying to do every day. You're just trying to be better than what you were the day before.
Q: How close are you to graduating?
A: I've got 10 hours left.
Q: Really?
A: Flew through, huh.
Q: I guess you took summer classes?
A: I was taking summer classes but I was doing 15, 16 hours every semester.
Q: Was that always your plan (to graduate in 3 1/2 years)?
A: I came in, I didn't redshirt and I missed the first summer, so I was also a little behind. I just sort of had a good work ethic coming in just working my butt off in the classroom and on the field. It's kind of all paid off. I'm here where I am now, ready to graduate.
Q: If I can ask, what's your GPA?
A: I think it's like a 2.8 now. It's doing all right, but got a little bit lazy this semester, but definitely got to finish up strong. That's the main thing.


text: Interesting and great news from our lawyer recently that there is a law in Nicaragua which states land owners in front of you cannot block your sea view by building more than a 1 story house, even if you have NOT built your house yet. To enforce it, you need to stop their construction after it has started. But ideally you can enter dialogue with them to avoid this.

Frank Deford at Sports Illustrated has an article up about the role of sports in holiday celebrations. "[S]ports are pretty agnostic when it comes to religion," he says, and he has a point.
From Thanksgiving football to the five games the NBA has scheduled for Christmas Day this year (to begin their shortened season), sports are making inroads as yet another secular focus for traditionally religious holidays.
Deford writes:
All that old-fashioned Currier and Ives/Norman Rockwell stuff — with the family gathered around the turkey and then the Christmas tree — is nice, but winter holidays are now primarily for gathering the family around whatever games are on television.
Is the shift a symptom of an increasingly secular culture or one of the causes for it?
I'm inclined to say it's a bit of both, a feedback loop probably initiated by league bigwigs hoping to pull in more advertising money. And while I don't exult in the stress placed on religious athletes who may have to choose between job and faith (even if I think said faith is silly), I'm all for more secular ways to celebrate the holidays.

Why should advisers offer captive insurance companies?
Advisors are always looking for opportunities in the business market, but captive insurance strategies are not mainstream options they consider. Captives offer tax advantages, premium discounts and portfolio management. Well-versed advisors can use them to differentiate their practice from other financial professional business models. Steve Savant, syndicated financial columnist and talk show host, interviews nationally recognized captive insurance company expert Wes Sierk on this episode of "Let's Get Down to Business."

Eiffel11:30 AM
Postcards from Paris! Not the best time to take photos..(notice the puddles of rain), but the entire week we were at Paris, the Eiffel Tower was on strike. First of all, we didn't even know that could happen. Second of all, we waited hoping that they would get off strike and it just so happens that the night before the last day we were there, it rained.. :( Oh well, this just means I'll have to take another trip to Paris right..? Haha
During our stay, it was actually pretty cold and dreary so I did my best to stay warm without looking like a huge marshmallow fluff. Thanks to Chicwish, I was able to do just that! This white sweater is definitely thicker than it looks, and has the cutest ties on the sleeves and kept me warm throughout the cold weather.

Great pictures! Always take another trip to Paris!ReplyDelete
I find it very cute . .. Really nice :) , Love to go Paris :)ReplyDelete

A local attorney has been censured by his peers.
Last week, the Tennessee Board of Professional Responsibility handed down the reprimand to Johnny V. Dunaway. It doesn't affect his ability to practice law but serves as a warning.
It was alleged Dunaway "charged and received a contingency fee" from a client in exchange for representing her once her divorce case reached the appeals level, according to a press release issued by the TBPR. Prior to this he charged her $350 an hour.
Editor's note: The following story contains information about a young child who was the victim of a sexual crime. The last name of the mother has been excluded to protect the privacy of the minor.
Robert Moore, a convicted sexual offender, recently violated his probation.
He left the state after being instructed by his probation officer not to. While he was charged with violating the probation, Moore spent little time in jail for the charge.
For the mother of his victim, the quick release is unacceptable.
A city-wide sting to catch businesses breaking the law resulted in three misdemeanor citations last week.
"I was contacted by the ABC (Alcohol Beverage Commission) and they set up a date to come up," said LaFollette Police Chief Jimmy Jeffries.
On Jan. 16, the Alcoholic Beverage Commission visited all businesses in LaFollette with a beer permit to make sure IDs were being checked.
At Tuesday's meeting, the county commission approved a nonbinding letter of intent with Montclair, Technologies.
The motion to approve the letter passed with 13 yes votes. Commissioners Bob Walden and Steve Rutherford were absent.
"I just would point out to you that it's clear from this document that it's a non-binding letter of intent," county attorney Joe Coker said.
By approving the letter, the commission hasn't committed to anything, but has agreed to move forward to seek a final agreement, Coker said.
A husband-wife duo was arrested after police allege they were selling narcotics.
The pair, Ted and Thelma Alsip of Hoot Owl Hollow Road in Jellico, originally drew attention of the Jellico Police Department after they received word about alleged acts happening in Veterans' Park, according to police.
After evidence was gathered, it was presented to the Campbell County Grand Jury, who then issued true bills for the Alsips.
Campbell County is one of 12 East Tennessee counties to take part in today's Point in Time count, a look a the local homeless population.
By counting the homeless, the county becomes eligible for grant money to help fund permanent housing for the homeless.
"Our whole purpose in this is to cooperate with HUD to make us eligible for grant money for our housing and persons here in Campbell County," said Debi Mikesell, one of the event's organizers.
While many in Campbell County have been sick, few have come to LaFollette Medical Center with the flu.
"We are seeing lots of sick people, mimicking flu symptoms," said Amanda Seiber, employee health nurse at LaFollette Medical Center. "But it's turned out it's more or less (cold). Of all the cases tested (for flu), the volume is very low. Our numbers are low at the time being."
Flu symptoms include: fever, aches, chills, cough and runny nose, Seiber said.
Campbell County is one of 12 East Tennessee counties to take part in today's Point in Time count, a look a the local homeless population.
At a special called meeting on Jan. 18, the LaFollette City Council approved a bid from Dixie Roofing to repair the roof over the Police Department.
"Mike, fix the leak," Mayor Mike Stanfield said to Mike Malicoat, owner of Dixie Roofing.
Dixie Roofing had the low bid of $21,976.
The council had voted to advertise for bids at the regular meeting on Jan. 8. The council adjourned in session and reconvened Friday for a special called meeting to accept a bid.
Jellico Electric and Water Systems could find itself in the banking business depending on what the comptroller says.
In a Jan. 14 letter from Jellico Mayor Les Stiers to the comptroller's office, he outlines some of the town's financial troubles, and then asks for approval to request a $225,000 loan from the utility service.
"My message to the comptroller is there up front. We have three large ominous bills staring us in the face," Stiers said on Tuesday.

When choosing a dentist for you and your family, what are the most important things to look for?
Is it convenient hours? The variety of services offered? Experience? While each patient's criteria is slightly different, these are just a few factors that our patients say played a crucial role in selecting us as their dental office of choice.
So we thought, why not put together a comprehensive list of the most important factors to consider when selecting a dentist?
In this article, we're going to cover 9 specific reasons that Bragg Dental should be on your "short list" when considering a new dentist for you and your family in the Cumming, GA area.
1: Two Passionate, Caring Dentists with over 30+ Years of Combined Experience
You won't find two dentists anywhere in the North Atlanta area who care more about their patients than Dr. Bragg and Dr. Moody.
In fact, when Dr. Bragg was asked what she loves about dentistry and her practice the most, here's what she had to say:
"I love helping people, whether it is alleviating their pain, creating the smile they always wanted, or hearing a child say they love to come see the dentist. Most recently, we had a patient say we cured them of being scared to go to the dentist!
I also love the relationships we have with our patients— getting to know them and their families and friends, and taking care of their dental health needs."
To learn more about Dr. Bragg, click here.
Dr. Moody also has an undeniable passion when it comes to helping patients. One thing she's very eager about is educating patients of the fact that dentistry has changed drastically in the last 20 years, and there's no longer any reason to be afraid of coming to the dentist.
Dr. Moody states, "So many advances have been made in dentistry – from the delivery of anesthetic to our equipment and materials – dental procedures have become much more comfortable and are done in a shorter amount of time. We are also sensitive to patients' fears, and can tailor appointments to meet your needs, whether it is with 'laughing gas' or headphones to block out the noise."
In addition to caring deeply about the dental health and well-being of each and every patient, Dr. Bragg and Dr. Moody also have the experience necessary to solve problems and successfully perform a wide variety of dental procedures.
To learn more about Dr. Moody, click here.
They have been practicing dentistry since 1997 and 1998 respectively, giving them over 30 years of combined experience working with patients on a daily basis.
Whether you are in need of a dental cleaning and oral exam, cosmetic procedure, or even a complex restoration case, Drs. Bragg and Moody, along with their wonderful team, have the skills and experience required to work with you hand in hand to achieve your desired results.
2: Glowing Reviews from Our Patients
It's one thing for us to tell you how great our practice is, but the real litmus test comes when you take a look at what our patients are saying about us.
After all, without testimonials from real patients, how do you know if you can trust us? Our patients call us helpful, professional, life changing, and more. In fact, here are a couple of testimonials:
"I've used this practice for years and refused to change, even when my employer tried to get me to use a DMO instead. They are gentle and thorough. I've had quite a few procedures, and each time, have been treated with great care." Traci
"I've been going to Bragg Dental for 10 years, and, as someone who has been in the dentist chair many, many times over a 70+ year lifespan, I have never experienced the degree of professionalism, competence, and service I find there." Darryl
If you'd like to read more about how we've helped patients just like you solve a variety of dental problems for themselves and their families, visit our testimonials page.
3: Complete Transparency with a Focus on Patient Education
We've built great relationships with our patients based first and foremost on one factor: TRUST. Without trust in any relationship, nothing else really matters.
Our entire dental team is dedicated to helping patients solve their issues by being a thought leader in the dental space, as well as being completely transparent with patients on the problems they are experiencing and the solutions we suggest.
In other words, when you come see us at Bragg Dental with a problem, we're going to take the time to discuss all of your options with you. You won't be up-sold on a costly procedure you may not need if a lower cost procedure can provide you with the results you are looking for.
We're in the business of improving smiles and having our patients recommend us to others because we are helpful, patient, caring, experienced, and trustworthy. Simply put, making an extra dollar never gets in the way of doing the right thing, and that's the philosophy of every dentist, hygienist, assistant, and team member at our office.
4: We are Conveniently Located Near GA-400, Buford Hwy, and Atlanta Hwy
As full-time working women with hectic lives and busy schedules, we get it— life is extremely busy. It's tough to even find a spare hour to visit the dentist, and we understand that!
If you're in the Cumming, GA area, we are conveniently located near GA-400, Buford Highway, and Atlanta Highway. Our practice is convenient and easy to find for anyone in the area.
If you're looking for our practice, click here to see a map that shows our exact location. Our address is:
655 Atlanta Rd #701
Cumming, GA 30040
5: A Variety of Services (Dental Cleanings to Full Cosmetic Restorations)
Let's say you or a family member need a dental cleaning, a tooth bonded, maybe Invisalign® treatment, and also a dental implant. Those are all very different procedures, and a lot of dental practices refer that work out to others.
Not us. We're a complete dental practice providing a variety of dental procedures all under one roof. On the page below, you'll find a list of services we provide:
In addition to the obvious benefit of only having to visit one dental practice for all your needs, it also gives us the ability to treat you better because we have a thorough and complete understanding of other procedures you've had done.
Fast forward 10 years— would you rather have visited 3-4 different dentists for a variety of issues, or work with one dental practice that has a thorough understanding of your dental history, and has proven themselves as competent and trustworthy?
The answer is obvious. That's what you'll have when you choose Bragg Dental as your Cumming dental practice of choice.
6: Cutting-Edge Dental Technology for Early Detection & Advanced Treatment
Dental technology has grown leaps and bounds over the last few years, and at Bragg Dental, we believe that investing in the latest dental technology and learning how to use it appropriately will lead to better treatments for our patients.
Our #1 goal is to provide the highest quality dental care in a family-based, high-technology practice.
To highlight this point, we use a variety of dental technologies, including advanced digital imaging tools, such as digital x-rays (which emit less radiation than traditional x-rays), intraoral cameras, 3M Comfort Control Anesthesia, dental implant systems, and more.
For more information on the advanced dental technologies available to Bragg Dental patients, visit this page.
7: We Take the Hassle Out of Working with Insurance Companies

The ideal climate for a zucchini plant is the temperate weather with warm temperatures that should never go below 15 degrees. The soil should be rich with organic substances and well managed, most of all, plants should be placed very deep. You can plant your zucchini directly letting the seed bud and then transplanting, or directly planting the seed in the final location. It is always a good idea to spread some dry leaves and other organic residuals around the plant in order to prevent weed to overgrow suffocating the plants.

Watering procedures should be frequent and heavy, most of all during the hottest Seasons and once the plants have been put into ground because the soil should be kept wet but airy. Fertilization should be done while preparing the soil for planting and seeding. Trimming is useful to avoid spare branches to steal nutrients from the main plant, so lateral branches gets usually cut off. The crop is ready every other season and the collection can last up to two months. The right time to collect the fruits is when the flower on the top is about to bloom. Since zucchini are an amazing help for your health, try to take care of your plants that can give you vegetables full with vitamins and anti-age properties, in addition to low calories and anti-inflammation characteristics.
Zucchini are often easily attacked by diseases and parasites. Molds, white fly, aphids are the most common problems that could occur to your plant so prevent them by being careful to not let humidity stagnate and keep your plants strong and resistant to parasites with preventing solutions. If it is not enough and the plants get weak, use some organic anti-parasites opting for the most natural ones in order to not affect the fruits that you will eventually eat.

Celia de Anca, Director of the Centre for Diversity in Global Management
On January 10th, at IE Business School in Madrid, ONA Foundation, Morocco and the IE Foundation, Madrid organized the second meeting of the 'Cross-cultural Think Tank on Corporate Diversity ' in a Spanish- Moroccan context.
The Cross-Cultural Think Tank on Corporate Diversity is a process designed to develop and implement innovative ideas for the analysis and understanding of corporate diversity, with a practical focus on the Hispano-Moroccan business context.
Hosted by Mr. Rafael Puyol Vice President of the IE Foundation and Mr. Rachid Slimi, President of the ONA Foundation, the think tank aims to adopt an integrating approach by bringing together a small group of key players from diverse cultural, geographic and professional backgrounds who can contribute to making a significant difference to the environments in which they operate.
The think tank held last week in Madrid featured personalities from different academic disciplines including philosophy (Prof. Ali Benmakhllouf, Université de Nie Sophia-Antipolis, France); Antropology (Prof. Robert Rydell, Montana State University USA); Marketing (Prof. Bill Carney, IE Business School, Madrid); Intl Economics (Prof. Jose Collado, UNED, Spain); and finance (Prof. Eduardo Oliveira, IE Business School). The business world was also represented by Ms. Carmen Rodriguez, President, Expansion Exterior, Spain; Ms. Boutheyna Iraqi, President, AFEM (Association des femmes chefs d'entreprises du Maroc); Mr Bassim Jai Hokimi, President, Atlamed; and member of the board of directors of ONA /SNI Group Morocco. Important figures from the Media also lent their views to the discussion, including Ms. Nadia Salah, Editor in Chef, L'Economist Morocco, and Ms. Angeles Espinosa Middle East editor, EL País, Spain. Representatives of international institutions also contributed with their expertise in the field, including HIRH Archiduke George von Habsboug, Ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of the Republic of Hungary and member of the International Advisory board of IE Business School, and Mr. Ramon Enciso, Coordinator of the Hispano-Moroccan Comité Averroes.
Prof. Nourreddine el Hashemi, Presidential Advisor of the Ona Foundation and Prof. Celia de Anca, Director of the Center for Diversity in Global Management at IE Business School, moderated the debate following the discussions of the first meeting held in Casablanca in December 2005.
As a result of the first Casablanca meeting, research on the perceptions and practices of cultural diversity in Moroccan organizations was conducted during 2006 by the ONA foundation.
The survey results were presented at the 2nd session in Madrid last week, which helped the experts to find practical new angles to some of the topics discussed during the first think tank (tradition and modernity, cultural models at work and women in management). The results of the survey also helped participants deal with practical aspects for integrating cultural diversity in Moroccan companies as well as for Spanish and international organizations going into morocco.
The survey results fuelled some new discussions on the perception of cultural diversity in Moroccan businesses, the positive effect of skilled immigration on corporate image and the need for executives to implement cultural diversity policies in their firms.
Conclusions drawn from the second meeting included the need to train for cultural diversity in a non-normative fashion, fostering a better awareness of each individual's 'personal cultural mode", and a better ability to detect cultural elements in practical business practices.
The think tank experts will explore some of the reforms needed in the regular training curricula so as to include some diversity training fundamentals, at universities as well as in business schools and/or corporate training programmes.
During the meeting the experts drafted and approved a practical model to continue their work in systematic fashion with an emphasis on specific cultural behaviour and its practical implications for academia, the media, the business world and public policy.
The Academic Coordinators of the think tank will edit the discussions, and results of this second meeting for general distribution and will organize a new survey, this time among Spanish corporations in Morocco, to be conducted some time in 2007 and presented at the 3rd think tank meeting.

The Giftsnatcher by Charity Bishop
The ad in the newspaper says Alana is a witch.
She isn't. She is something far more important… a Giftsnatcher, able to discern, identify, and steal the spiritual gifts of others. For years, she and her older sister have made a living selling them to paying clients. But when Lord Tremain wants her to bestow a particularly powerful gift on his grandson, for the first time in her life, Alana can't. It doesn't work.
Her quest to find a stronger gift, one able to penetrate Edgar's broken defenses, leads her into the social circle of Dr. Joseph Bell, a leading Edinburgh physician whose true profession comes to light as dark forces close in around them. Her stable, predictable life is turned upside-down when an unseen nemesis lures her into a series of macabre events that force her to confront her fundamental beliefs about the nature of good and evil.
Illusions, family curses, blood magic, and the Ripper killings unfold in a chilling tale of magic, murder, and mayhem as Alana unravels the truth not only about Edgar, but also herself.

For once, Ellie Sweet has it all together. Her hair now curls instead of fuzzes, she's tamed the former bad-boy, Chase Cervantes (she has, right?), and her debut novel will hit shelves in less than a year. Even her ex-friends are leaving her alone. Well, except for Palmer Davis, but it can't be helped that he works at her grandmother's nursing home.
Life should feel perfect. And yet, it's not that easy. Ellie's editor loves her, but the rest of the publishing biz? Not so much. And they're not shy about sharing their distrust over Ellie's unlikely debut.
Ellie has always been able to escape reality in the pages of her novel, but with the stress of major edits and rocky relationships, her words dry up. In fiction, everything always comes together, but in real life, it seems to Ellie that hard work isn't always enough, the people you love can't always be trusted, and the dream-come-true of publishing her book could be the biggest mistake she's made yet.

Take a Chance on Me by Susan May Warren
Darek Christiansen is almost a dream bachelor—oldest son in the large Christiansen clan, heir to their historic Evergreen Lake Resort, and doting father. But he's also wounded and angry since the tragic death of his wife, Felicity. No woman in Deep Haven dares come near.
New assistant county attorney Ivy Madison simply doesn't know any better when she bids on Darek at the charity auction. Nor does she know that when she crafted a plea bargain three years ago to keep Jensen Atwood out of jail and in Deep Haven fulfilling community service, she was releasing the man responsible for Felicity's death. All Ivy knows is that the Christiansens feel like the family she's always longed for. And once she gets past Darek's tough exterior, she finds a man she could spend the rest of her life with. Which scares her almost as much as Darek learning of her involvement in his wife's case.
Caught between new love and old grudges, Darek must decide if he can set aside the past for a future with Ivy—a future more and more at risk as an approaching wildfire threatens to wipe out the Christiansen resort and Deep Haven itself.

You might have heard about the destructive power of food addiction, obesity and drug addiction but very few people are aware of the fact that even pornography is an addiction problem that the world faces today. The destructive power of pornography is a taboo in our culture. However, the biggest faltering block that people face as a society and a nation is that there is a huge population that is actually unaware of the fact that pornography is a real problem. There is no definite answer to why people are not believing in pornography as a problem but one thing that can obviously be done is educating people about this problem and increasing the levels of awareness. If you happen to be in a committed relation or in case you are married, it is important for you to know how porn negatively effects your relationship with women. Just like any other temptation or addiction, you can also overcome your desire of watching porn and this way you can actually avoid your relationship from getting damaged further. This will also help you in repairing and building trust again with the woman in your life when she sees that you are interested in taking positive steps in overcoming this problem.
Women Break Down Completely
For a large number of women, discovering that their husbands are viewing pornography since a very long time is very similar to uncovering extramarital affair. This is the reason why women experience different emotions such as hurt, anger, betrayal, sadness and rejection. Women start believing that their husbands are in a relation with the women that they view in the porn movies instead of their wives. They also start believing that they have been replaced by a computer image and this is the main reason why women are completely devastated on discovering that their husbands have been viewing porn for a very long time.
Violation of Trust in Marriage
For several women, their husbands watching porn movies is a complete violation of the trust that remains between the partners in marriage. When a woman and a man get married, both of them vow to honor, love and cherish the companionship of each other for the remaining years of their lives. Watching porn movies is directly related to breaking such vows. This is due to the fact that watching porn is in no ways a sign of a man's love, respect and honor for the women in his life. Women find their husbands to be complete strangers all of a sudden. The violation of marital trust is so deep for some women that they start questioning the survival of their marriage. Most women might gather the guts to forgive their husbands but there are many who find it very difficult to rebuild trust and let go off their relationship.
Pornography that invades the life of a woman also makes the women feel unattractive, sexually undesirable and old. Men who are into watching porn get used to being aroused by the perfect women in these movies and thus they find it very difficult to perform well sexually with their own wives. So, if you are thinking how porn negatively effects your relationship with women then you must consider the above mentioned points.

I am a staunch atheist, and even I am disgusted by the opposition to the mosque near Ground Zero. Does anyone actually think this will become a threat? This mosque existed before 9/11, and there are many mosques in NYC. This is simply a political ploy to try and sway elections in November.
And Obama was completely stupid to chime in. No matter what he said someone was going to attack him for it. He made the same mistake when the black professor was arrested. Keep to running the country, you have more than enough to do without creating controversy.
And this mosque will be under a microscope. Terrorists will find people who don't spend their time in a community center playing games to be suicide bombers. And the people running the site are long-standing community members and have been openly vocal about protesting violence in the name of islam. None of it makes sense, unless you are trying to stir up anti-muslim sentiments during an election year.
The whole thing stinks like Bush's justification for the war in Iraq – contrived to suit a political purpose, nothing more.

Survey: Average private room cost rises by 5.7% this year
The average cost of a private room in a nursing home in the United States rose 5.7% to $203 from $192 last year, according to a new survey.
Alaska, once again, had the highest daily rates of $531. The Shreveport area of Louisiana had the lowest rates at $115, the annual MetLife Market Survey of Nursing Home Care Costs reported. The cost of a home healthcare aide per hour also rose by 5.5%, the study found.
"The rise in these long-term care costs of 5% and more constitute a crisis for many people who have not made the necessary financial preparations," said Sandra Timmermann, director of the MetLife Mature Market Institute.
The report is available at: http://www.maturemarketinstitute.com.
